Transport

At Berlin's two operational airports, Tegel and Schönefeld, a few hired shuttle buses were standing by to take passengers to S-Bahn stations. More taxis than usual were noticed in front of several airport terminals too. To taxi drivers, the walkout meant more business.

But of course not everyone shares Müller's or the Berlin Senate's opinion. For instance the Berlin Transport Authority is not enthusiastic at all. "People would be indignant if someone stole a bread roll without being punished", a BVG spokeslady told the Morgenpost. Comparisons like this one sound pretty convincing to some.
